He reported that he went to his house and perceived a very bad odour from the direction of the room where one Damian Okoligwe, a fellow tenant, lives.β
The DPO of the station led detectives to the scene and, on arrival, forced the door open to discover a ghana-must-go bag containing a lifeless body.
The fleeing suspect was subsequently traced and arrested for an inquiry.
βThe lifeless body of Justina Otuene, a 20-year-old Biochemistry 300-level UniPort student, was recovered and deposited at the mortuary. A preliminary investigation is in progress. The case has been transferred to the state CID for discreet investigation,β he said.
